As a cold air mass advances on a warm air mass, what usually comes before it?​

Physics
1 answer:
Marina CMI [18]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: A cold front occurs when a cold air mass advances into a region occupied by a warm air mass. If the boundary between the cold and warm air masses doesn't move, it is called a stationary front.

Explanation: Two types of occluded front exist: the warm-type and the cold-type. They’re distinguished by the relative temperatures of the air mass ahead of the occlusion – in other words, the air mass ahead of the original warm front – and the air mass behind the cold front. If the air behind the cold front is colder than the air ahead of the occlusion, it shoves beneath that air (because it’s denser) to form a cold-type occluded front. If the air behind the cold front is warmer than the air ahead, it rides over it to form a warm-type occluded front – which appears to be the more common case. In either situation, the lighter warm air representing the air mass originally between the warm and cold fronts sits above the boundary between the two cooler air masses.

Hope this helps!!

How much heat is evolved when 1234 g of water condenses to a liquid at 100.°c?
lbvjy [14]
During the phase transition vapour --> liquid water, the temperature of the water does not change; the molecules of water release heat and the amounf of heat released is equal to
Q=mL_e
where
m is the mass of the water
L_e is the latent heat of evaporation.

For water, the latent heat of evaporation is L=2257 kJ/kg, while the mass of the water is
m=1234 g=1.234 kg

so, the amount of heat released in the process is
Q=mL_e = (1.234 kg)(2257 kJ/kg)=2785 kJ

At which points would the river be traveling the slowest?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

This would be traveling at the lower reaches.

Explanation:

A river would be traveling the fastest at the upper reaches and it becomes slower at the middle reaches and the slowest at the lower reaches. A place where water flows fast in a river is where the width is narrow and the bottom is steep. (This is just examples incase you would like to keep notes).

How do you know that a chemical change has happened
Elodia [21]

Answer:

theres is many states of chemical change but its not exaclty the same as physical the appearence might change alittle but chemical like frying a egg is a chemical change because a change of materials into another, new materials with different properties and one or more than one new substances are formed and the subtance changeing or the materials can show chemical changed happened you cant always see it but touching too like heat energy can show a chemical change

Explanation:

i hope this helps and keep ur grades up :)

A firecracker breaks up into two pieces, one of which has a mass of 200 g and flies off along the x-axis with a speed of 82.0 m/
larisa [96]

Answer:

Total momentum, p = 21.24 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of first piece, m_1=200\ g= 0.2\ kg

Mass of the second piece, m_2=300\ g= 0.3\ kg

Speed of the first piece, v_1=82\ m/s (along x axis)

Speed of the second piece, v_2=45\ m/s (along y axis)

To find,

The total momentum of the two pieces.

Solve,

The total momentum of two pieces is equal to the sum of momentum along x axis and along y axis.

p_x=m_1v_1

p_x=0.2\ kg\times 82\ m/s

p_x=16.4\ kg-m/s

p_y=m_2v_2

p_y=0.3\ kg\times 45\ m/s

p_y=13.5\ kg-m/s

The net momentum is given by :

p=\sqrt{p_x^2+p_y^2}

p=\sqrt{16.4^2+13.5^2}

p = 21.24 kg-m/s

Therefore, the total momentum of the two pieces is 21.24 kg-m/s.
